Knoppix has brltty support, you will have to boot with

knoppix brltty=type,dev,table

in order to get the right settings for your braille device.

However, we are in the progress of making a new Live CD with sbl instead
of brltty (in order to be able to use the system with only keyboard
navigation and software speech output, braille devices are optionally
also supported), see http://knopper.net/knoppix-adriane/index-en.html
